Hiya!
I am LortiaMJB or Mike Jimmy de Bruin. CEO of my publishing company Faeries and Ents and creator of the series Life On Cora!
https://www.faeriesandents.com/
I've been making comics for a small 5 years now, but only published my first work in printform in 2018 with Life On Cora #1. Since then we've been going strong and so far have 12 books under our name, with many more to come!
Currently my main focuses are Life On Cora, written by Martin Fisher and Kimberly Kovac, and colored by Eristeine. Pencils and inks by myself. Issue #5 is well underway!
Not to forget** The Radiant Sight #1 **by Martin Fisher also and currently running on indiegogo! As this is our first venture into publishing a new creative team, this is really exciting!
Bit-Na is only a simple girl from the slums, but when she inherits a magical dress that makes her irresistible... Things may change for her quickly, will it bring her to greatness, or to ruin...?
Check it out: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-radiant-sight-1/x/23366240#/
Hoping to make some new comic friends here and see y'all around!
Welcome to the greater Hive area and to the comic community herein. Let me be the first to buy you a !BEER here on the block chain. There are a few comic artists and fans that I am sure will introduce themselves shortly. It's great to see more creatives arriving on the scene.
Happy to be here! Looking forward to getting acquainted to y'all and see some awesome projects come by ^^
Welcome! I love seeing more comics on Hive. I hope it's a good place for you.

Welcome, Mike Jimmy!!! Woo hoo.
@modernzorker don't miss this! :^)
Hello @lortiamjb! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive and introduced yourself to the community - congratulations and welcome! And you had me at "magical dress" - I'm a big fan of fantasy & love comic books (errr, wait - are we supposed to call them graphic novels now? lol!) so I will definitely be checking out your stuff. Tagging @steevc since he's the first community member who came to mind who also loves comics.
Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities. Looks like @merej99 already covered that in her most excellent comment though...lol!
Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works.
Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.
In addition, since you're new, you may run into an RC (Resource Credits) error when trying to comment/post because you don't yet have enough Hive in your account yet. For assistance with a temporary delegation to get you started, be sure to check out the Gift Giver site.
If you have questions, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server and we'll do our best to answer them, and again welcome to Hive!

Welcome Mike! Sounds like you have some interesting projects there. I'm always up for something different so looking forward to seeing what you have to share on Hive 😀
Thank you for the warm welcome! I see we have a common interest when it comes to mountains ;) As I'm from the Netherlands they're scarce and I gotta cross some borders to climb them haha
Thank you for the follow! Gave you a quick follow back while we're at it ^^
I am originally from South Africa so my beautiful Drakensberg Mountains will forever be in my heart. I have now lived in the UK for over 20 years so try to find time to explore over here instead and have hiked up a few. Yeah lol, I imagine that must be a frustrating love to have in a country like the Netherlands 🤣 but at least you don't have to travel far to experience the joy of being immersed in them. I look forward to bumping into you in and around Hive and thank you for the follow🤗🙏
